Love this!!! :thumbsup::applause:

I am actually glad you shared this with me. The way I was raised was I was educated on the traditions of christmas but it was constantly taught thAt this was a time to celebrate our Lord and Savior. I was taught about the significance of the Nativity. So I always associated the holiday with...

That article is great!! Really what I needed to read...

Thanks! :thumbs: I'll remember that.

I have an aquaintence that shared the biblical fact that Jesus was not born on the 25th of December and that we celebrate absolutely nothing on this day. I respectfully agreed with the fact that it was not the actual day He was born but I didn't agree that we celebrate nothing on this day. I...

Well the blessings keep getting bigger and better! I just had to tell you all Thank you for your words of encouragement and prayers! I just got hired as a scientist for a major laboratory and i could not be any more excited than I am now. I thank God everyday for His many blessings and this was...

Thank you so much for this message!! It helped me to understand that sometimes God is trying to see how bad you want it. I am really working hard to push through and do what I have been created to do.

I am not trying to be mean or anything but here is the deal: 1.my loan is not in default. 2. I did not know about my college fund being spent until the emergency happened so I went to school thinking the money was there. I also had a scholarship which helped out a lot. I don't think the Lord is...

What I meant by living for me was that I would stop giving everyone's opinon so much priority and have joy in what I have. I didn't mean that i wasn't living for the Lord. Also I stated previously that money had been set aside and planned for my education but my parents were laid off and they...

Thank you for your response but I have already taken it as a lesson learned and to be honest I have spoken with my parents and we discussed these same verses but in this case, I had no control over what happened. All I can do at this point is pay it off and move on. I'm just thankful its not...

I have spoken to them but because of the fact that the account is in collections, all I can do at this point is find a way to pay it off. I have called and talked to several people and I have gone in person.

***Update*** I just thought I would let all of you know what has been happening since I last posted. I am currently going to graduate in the fall with my associates in science degree. Its not the bachelors degree I wanted but it's a start. I am 5 classes away from having my bachelors degree but...

I totally agree Tater! Like it says in the bible, "He who is without sin, cast the first stone" I'm sure the intentions were good but it came across like you have never sinned in your life. Man has sinned since the garden of eden and that is why Jesus died on the cross. Its going to happen. its...

To your first point: I do realize that God's plan is not the same as my plan. That is crystal clear to me. But, I have been told that if we ever want to know what is going on with our lives, then it is okay to ask God why and thats all I am doing. To your second point: I never said they weren't...

Yes I am interested! Please send them to me!!

Oh yeah!! I have read Job several times and it looks like I need to read it again! I love that story! Thanks for the reminder!!:thumbs:

Personally, I think that by not allowing those that are saved to attend church just gives people the thought that Christians feel that they are holier than thou. As Christians, we have all had to become saved at one point or another and by not allowing the unsaved to enter into the church, we...

No I dont think I am the only one with issues and I have not rejected any piece of advice people have told me. I have taken everything into consideration but what I am saying is everytime I said it wouldnt work out if I did it the way someone suggest, then I am considered to be whining or I am...

I am sorry. I apologize. I went to church today and realized what the problem was and I apologize. I should have asked Christ all these questions and not you all because you all are just as flawed as I am. I know now what I have to do. In my offense though, I have no problem with...

Thanks for all of the advice but I have pretty much given up any hope of working in a lab like I had dreamed. All of my dreams and promises that were made to me have been smashed up to this point and I have just pretty much checked out of life at this point because my credit is in the toilet, I...
